Circular Life


Artificial leaves
attached to a vine
up a lamp post
entwined
Seasonal decor
right next door
for all to see
the unchanging leaves
The neighbors admire
how they never expire
and nod in appreciation
of leaf placement location
Foolish to feel sorry for
some silly autumn decor
Can't help but imagine
how it does fathom
being bent & placed
feeling wind in its face
but never being able
to release from the plastic
vine that keeps it in place
As it watches real leaves
fall to death from trees
thinking it's lucky to never die
but all the while living a lie
Oh to fly
to be tossed about the sky
uncertain where you'll land
cause freedom doesn't plan
and make it perfectly just so
leaves simply
let go
